Imagine if McDonalds came out with a different name? People have associated with that name for their entire lives. Most of us have been here for an extremely long time, and a name change will cause a massive change. People know DRK. You would have to start over marketing wise to get to the point you are at now.
McDonalds doesn't need rebranding Darkcoin does. There are many success stories too, remember Kentucky Fried Chicken

It was already discussed extensively on both forums so I don't really think we can start from the beginning again.

I can see where you are coming from but you have a very narrow view. McDonalds has been around longer than most people's age who are into crypto so you are talking oranges and apples. You cant compare Mcdonalds brand name exposure to Darkcoins. Darkcoins name has been around for like 12 months...this is so young its not funny.....I guarantee you that the majority of hardcore bitcoiners in the main forum still dont know what Darkcoin is and or what it does.... Now compare this to the rest of the world when/if digital currency starts going mainstream in a few years...if you had two options to use as an every day consumer one named digital cash the other darkcoin ...you can guess how much Darkcoin would be utilised....almost zilch... You want our audience to be a very closed off niche market or be presentable for everyday consumers?

I am a bit disappointed.

So I am trying to mine using AMD GPUs for the first time. Here are the details
MSI r9 290x - Both cards are installed as I could see it in the devices section of the windows operating system . Miner Software sgminer_v5.1_2015-03-09 Windows 7 operating system
Via cmd line : sgminer.exe -k darkcoin -o stratum+tcp://drk.ghash.io:3333 -u user.worker -p password
I get the following error
[04:49:44] Started sgminer 4.2.2-323-g78ac-dirty [04:49:44] * using Jansson 2.6 [04:49:45] clDevicesNum returned error, no GPUs usable [04:49:45] All devices disabled, cannot mine!
Any Suggestions ?
download sgminer 5.1.0 and change -k darkcoin to -k x11

But can you trust the word "Dash." Money should invoke trust.
Can you trust spread to be spreadable if you keep it in the fridge for too long?

But can you trust the word "Dash." Shouldn't currency make you feel like you are holding onto something valuable? Is Dash a good logo?
